WORLD GLOBES

... home decoration, educational purposes, or simply to plan your next trip!

Everybody seems to love World Globes and they are certainly a talking point.

Desktop globes tend to me the most popular, followed by floor-standing globes.

Always bear in mind that non-illuminated world globes are made from particleboard sections that are laid down by hand so the letters may not always exactly meet up. This is part of the charm, and the knowing that somebody somewhere has hand crafted your particular purchase! It also means that raised-relief (to show the lay of the land, and mountain ranges) can be pressed into the particleboard using a special tool. These are not blisters or bumps - they are meant to be there.

If you want a perfectly smooth version, where there are no "gores", then choose illuminated because that is a one-piece transfer that is stretched over a plastic sphere.
